*The fresh, frank and very funny new novel from Dawn O’Porter – CAT LADY – is available to buy now*
Dawn O’Porter has been thinking a lot about life.Mostly from a cupboard (and she’s definitely not hiding from her children). Fearless, funny and unflinchingly real, Life in Pieces is a diary of a time we’ll all remember forever – laughing through the tears, finding comfort in the chaos and (in Dawn’s case, at least) discovering the life-changing properties of a midday margarita. So if you need a shake-up in your life, here’s the tonic – with a perfect splash of tequila…
‘What should you expect? Tears, belly laughs and to come out the other side wanting Dawn O’Porter to be your best friend’ Marie Claire
‘I've rattled through it . . . Dawn O'Porter redresses the balance by telling it as it really has been: fighting a losing battle against a tide of mess, noise and need, and holding out for 5pm to crack open the tequila’ Mark Watson

Reviews

‘Moving and funny. I absolutely loved it’ Claudia Winkleman ‘An intimate, honest account of the first three months of isolation . . . Her book is a paean to what is truly important’ Telegraph ‘It is very funny but also intimate and honest’ Louis Theroux ‘Poignant and funny’ Red ‘I've rattled through it . . . There's been a lot of well-meaning but mad advice on how to contend with the strangest period of human history any of us has ever lived through. Dawn O'Porter redresses the balance by telling it as it really has been, for many of us: holding out for 5pm to crack open the tequila’ Mark Watson ‘Funny and heart-rending in equal measure’ Sunday Express Praise for Dawn O’Porter: ‘Fierce and funny’ Bryony Gordon, Daily Telegraph ‘Smart and insightful’ Red ‘A total joy . . . Compulsively funny’ Matt Haig ‘Straight-talking . . . tackles a host of topical issues’ Sunday Express ‘Dawn's writing is addictive – fearless, beyond feisty and seriously funny’ Mel Giedroyc ‘Dawn O' Porter has the ability to make everyone want to be her best friend’ OK ‘Funny and very honest’ Davina McCall ‘Entertaining and thought-provoking’ Irish Times Expand reviews
